Front Entrance Wall. Collaboration with London School of Mosaic
Based on drawings from design sessions with children. Project included mosaic-making sessions (pupils and staff) and was installed directly on external brick wall using indirect method.
It was started in the middle of the pandemic period and was a welcome project for the children. The mosaic was inspired by the huge 150 year old blossom tree in the grounds of the school.
Drawings and individual blossom flowers from each child were incorporated into the design and final mosaic. The mosaics were worked on in sections (reverse method) and put together at the end.
